I loved and played the hell out of D2 upon its release and TL2 has been a floodgate for releasing all those wonderful memories that games like Sacred and Titan's Quest (good games in their own right) were unable to do. I honestly believe its set the new standard. In many ways TL2 actually surpasses D2 in gameplay, content and most importantly the fun factor. Is this a bad thing? Probably not when you are working of a template that has yet to be matched since D2 came out in 2000. Like D2 you'll first traverse through a wooded area and move on to a desert, then encounter a swampy glade before moving onto the games version of hell. ![]() ![]() Now I know most of the dev's that created D2 have had a hand in TL2 but its still suprising to see how closely TL2 plays like a modern day remake of the ol' Grand Daddy of ARPG's itself right down to the setting and story. I suppose at a base level there will always be that feeling of been-there-done-that when tackling a game within this particular genre but what strikes me is how similar in content and play-style TL2 actually is to Diablo 2 (D2). There is often a sense of deja vu when playing through Torchlight 2 (TL2).
